This Is Not What I Asked For is a brand-new Global Original podcast hosted by multi-award-winning celebrity hairstylist Jonathan Andrew, available to listen to from Monday 30th January 2023.

In each episode, Jonathan will invite a special guest to take a seat, as they open up about their life and career. Each guest will be sharing stories sparked by photos they have brought along with them depicting hairstyles that have been significant in their lives. From his celebrity clients such as Jamie Redknapp, Romesh Ranganathan and Joel Dommett to the likes of Roman Kemp, Vicky Pattison, Pete Wicks, Maisie Adams and James and Fuhad from the hilarious ShxtsNGigs podcast. The podcast emulates the fun yet often honest and heartfelt conversations that take place between Jonathan and his clients over the course of a styling appointment.

Listeners can expect plenty of laughs as well as meaningful insights into each guest’s life, as they take a trip down memory lane through their ‘greatest’ hairstyles of all time.

From Jamie Redknapp sharing his experiences as a kid training with his dad, his own journey with parenting to why the Redknapp household knows to avoid him if his cowlick’s sticking up. Romesh Ranganathan looks back at old photos that sparks memories of his school days including asking a girl out who thought it was a joke. Roman Kemp talks about how his parents always allowed him to use his hair as a form of expression and Joel Dommett admits he’s ready to try out curtains like Leonardo DiCaprio in the 90s.

With an illustrious 12 years of experience in the world of hairdressing and an impressive repertoire, Jonathan is one of most sought out celebrity hairstylists in the UK. He creates genuine bonds with his clients, allowing them to open up to him in interviews where they otherwise may not.

When you sit in the hairdresser’s chair, you never know which direction your conversation is going to go in; get ready to hear celebrity stories like you’ve never heard them before.

Season One of This Is Not What I Asked For will be available to listen to every Monday, with the first episode out on 30th January featuring Jamie Redknapp.
